Meanings (ES + gloss)
arquegonio
A multicellular reproductive structure that contains a large, non-motile gamete (egg cell), and within which an embryo will develop.
On fertilization, the archegonia form obyriform calyptrae that are distinctly narrowed at base to form a stalk or peduncle; this does not occur in other Hepaticae.
